Wario using the Super Horn against Yoshi in Mario Kart 8
Wario uses the Super Horn on Yoshi.

The Super Horn is a new item introduced in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It can be obtained if the player is 400 to 2000 units from the leader, though it is the rarest item to obtain in first place. When players use it, it emits a large shockwave generated from sound that can flip out nearby racers and destroy items, including Spiny Shells, within its radius. It looks similar to both the Light Box and the Cannon Box from Super Mario 3D World. It is the successor to the Car Horn from Mario Kart Arcade GP and its sequels, which had multiple uses but could not destroy items.

The Super Horn returns in Mario Kart Tour, with the same function as Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Additionally, it appears in Pauline, King Boo, Daisy (Holiday Cheer), Luigi (Classic), Mario (Chef), Mario (Halloween), and Nabbit's special item, the Lucky Seven, in place of the Star due to it now being exclusive to certain challenges. Additionally, due to the current absence of Piranha Plants as items, the Super Horn now has the ability to repel Bloopers, giving players who do so a specially-named point bonus.

In the Super Mario Mash-Up Pack in Minecraft, jukeboxes are replaced by Super Horns.
